INFORMATION TO USERS
This reproduction was made from a copy of a manuscript sent to us for publication
and microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to pho
tograph and reproduce this manuscript, the quality of the reproduction is heavily
dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. Pages in any manuscript
may have indistinct print. In all cases the best available copy has been filmed.
The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify notations which
may appear on this reproduction.
1. Manuscripts may not always be complete. When it is not possible to obtain
missing pages, a note appears to indicate this.
2. When copyrighted materials are removed from the manuscript, a note ap
pears to indicate this.
3. Oversize materials (maps, drawings, and charts) are photographed by sec
tioning the original, beginning at the upper left hand corner and continu
ing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each oversize
page is also filmed as one exposure and is available, for an additional
charge, as a standard 35mm slide or in black and white paper format. *
4. Most photographs reproduce acceptably on positive microfilm or micro
fiche but lack clarity on xerographic copies made from the microfilm. For
an additional charge, all photographs are available in black and white
standard 35mm slide format.*

I dedicate this thesis to
my parents, who encouraged me to love learning;
John, whose support made possible my graduate work,
whose help assured the completion of this thesis, and who
has coped well with everything that my work entailed;
Jacinth and Joseph, who have endured my work and who
now deserve to discover what life is like without Mommy's
doctoral preoccupations.
